Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty
Chapter 851: On the Xuande Gate
White smoke billowed in the bedroom of the Hall of Gracious Grace, and water vapor filled the air. Guo Shaochi was half-lying in a large wooden basin, which was filled with something sticky like mud and hot air; his head had been shaved, and was wrapped in a gauze bag, which was smoking.
It was Mrs. Lu's idea that he was turned into this funny look, because the imperial doctors couldn't find an antidote, and they couldn't even recognize the poison, so they had to let Mrs. Lu use a strange method of detoxification.
Guo Shao has been lying like this for almost a month, and now he woke up, still lying there. Jing Niang stood beside her, describing the recent situation in soft words.
After listening for a long time, Guo Shao stretched out his hand to grab the things off his head, and struggled to stand up, but found that his whole body was limp and he had no strength. He then said, "Call someone in and take me to the Jinxiang Palace."
"Your Majesty?" Jing Niang froze for a moment.
Guo Shao struggled to get out of the basin, but Jing Niang quickly supported her and shouted, "Come here!"
Soon a few imperial doctors and a group of court ladies and eunuchs came in, and everyone hurriedly made clothes for him to put on, and covered his bald head with a festoon. Then he was put on the sedan chair again.
Guo Shao felt that he had improved for a while. If the treatment was ineffective, he should have died of poisoning for such a long time, and he would not be able to move gradually. On the sedan chair, he turned his head to Miss Lu and said, "I remember Miss Lu's kindness and contributions."
... Fu Jinzhan was sitting in the East Hall, waiting for the news on pins and needles.
At this moment, suddenly seeing an eunuch running in, Jinzhan was startled and stared at the eunuch. The eunuch stepped forward and said, "Ma'am, the officials are here!"
"What do you mean?" Jinzhan widened her beautiful eyes.
The eunuch said: "The official family is awake, and they have been carried to the Jinxiang Hall. They are on the way."
Jinzhan was like a drowning person grabbing a life-saving straw, and said in a trembling voice: "The official is okay?" Before the eunuch could answer, she got up and walked out quickly with her long skirt.
Exiting the north side of Jinxiang Hall, I saw a group of people coming from the long street surrounded by a sedan chair.
Guo Shao's sedan chair was carried straight into the apse, Jinzhan stepped forward and grabbed his hand vigorously, looking expectantly at Guo Shao who was lying on top without saying a word, because he felt that his hand was pinching her back in response.
He opened his eyes, looked at Jinzhan and nodded, then let go of her hand, tossed a few times from the sedan chair, and the people around him felt that he was being supported to sit up.
Guo Shao's face was visibly thinner, he sat there for a while, and said, "Get a bowl of porridge, put in both sugar and salt."
"Go!" Jinzhan ordered, and everyone got busy immediately. Why the emperor ate salty and sweet porridge is unknown. But this requirement will definitely satisfy the emperor soon.
When the porridge came in, Fu Jinzhan tasted it hot and cold, and then carefully fed it to Guo Shao with a spoon. Guo Shao seemed very silent, opened his mouth to feed him, and ate a lot of porridge slowly; Jinzhan's eyes were filled with tears, but she gradually smiled, her red lips were trembling slightly, seeing Guo Shao opened her mouth, her small mouth also opened, showing concern on her face.
Guo Shao ate the porridge all night, sat and rested for a while, and then tried to support himself on the sedan chair with his hands. The eunuch next to him hurried forward to help, but Guo Shao glared at him and said, "Get out of the way!"
The palace room suddenly became silent, and everyone held their breath and watched Guo Shao.
Guo Shao stood up slowly trembling slightly, standing in the middle with his head held high. Tears welled up in Jinzhan's eyes, and he knelt down on the ground, looking up at the burly body with joy, and everyone knelt down on the ground and shouted: "Your Majesty, live forever!"
"Decree, open all the city gates, lift the martial law in Tokyo, and call Li Chuyun and other Hexi Army officers and men to come in." Guo Shao immediately ordered after standing up.
...Guo Shao stayed in the Jinxiang Palace for nearly an hour, and after listening to Jinzhan finish the important things and memorials, he ordered someone to change into a purple robe and black gauze, and asked someone to carry him to the main gate of the imperial city. Before he set off, he took a look in the bronze mirror. The black gauze on his bald head really looked like an eyesore, mainly because he had no hair on his temples.
He was carried up to the tower of Xuande Gate, and when he got close to the tower, he got off the sedan chair and wanted to walk in front of the people by himself, but the eunuch Wang Zhong wanted to help him, but he repelled him again.
His physical condition seemed to have improved, but he was still struggling, his teeth were clenched, and he had to hold his breath before he could move his legs... He used up all his strength to feed on his breasts, and he had never walked such a strenuous few steps in his life. Guo Shao felt as if he had returned to his toddler age, and everything was back to the beginning.
But every step he takes, the world opens up to him again! In his line of sight, first he saw the blue sky, and then the seemingly endless roofs of Tokyo entered his eyes from the top of the parapet...
The armored crowd that covered the Imperial Street appeared in front of them, and there seemed to be people everywhere between the houses, including the Hexi Army, as well as the soldiers and horses guarding the Tokyo rotation and the imperial guards. The soldiers gathered in the city at once, like a sea of people.
Guo Shao stood on the wall, looking at the soldiers. He knew that nearly half of the elite raised in the vast land with a radius of thousands of miles were here.
One after another, soldiers discovered the emperor on the Xuande Gate, and people looked up one after another. Gradually, Guo Shao was followed by more than 10,000 pairs of eyes. The originally noisy scene suddenly became much quieter... Presumably the news that the emperor was seriously ill had spread to the army, but now Guo Shao was standing in front of the people!
The main members of Da Xu’s Forbidden Army are still the original troops of the Forbidden Army left by the Zhou Dynasty, and Guo Shao had been a general in the Forbidden Army for a long time, eating and sleeping with the soldiers. Most people have seen him more than once, of course they recognize him.
Guo Shao held on to the female wall with one hand, and he didn't have the strength to shout out, so he just raised the scabbard violently with one hand.
Immediately, the crowd shouted loudly, and the sound of "Long live..." resounded throughout Tokyo. The city under his feet gradually boiled. In this era, I am afraid that only one person can arouse the reactions of so many people. The soldiers raised their knives and guns and stabbed at the sky, some shouted loudly, and in some places, a large crowd knelt down and looked up at the people on the ancient city tower.
After a while, the burly eunuch Yang Shiliang stepped forward, raised his hands as a signal, and waited for the nearby area to stop. Yang Shiliang said loudly: "Officials say that only a hundred households can support one elite soldier if there are billions of people in the world. If you are loyal to me, you will be loyal to the people of the country. Soldiers are the sword of great promise. They promote the prestige of the country, punish injustice severely, and open up thousands of miles!
I believe that the brothers are all innocent, so that the country and the people can be safe! "
The cheers rose again, and the countless streets and alleys in Tokyo, the vast and flat land, and the sight of the sky were all filled with this scorching atmosphere.
Guo Shao's legs trembled in his robe, so he turned around and slowly left the wall, sat down on the chair under the yellow cover behind, and said, "Decree, let Li Chuyun, Shi Yanchao, Wei Renpu, Zan Jurun and others come to Xuandemen to see me."
"Follow the order!"
After hearing the news one after another, there were also officials from the court, and the Xuande Gate was full of civil and military officials, palace people and guards guarding the city. Everyone surrounded Huang Gai, waiting with solemn expressions.
... After waiting for a long time, Li Chuyun and others received the order and rode their horses to the Xuande Gate. Several doors, the size of the Xuande Gate in the imperial city, were wide open, and outside were tens of thousands of fierce warriors in strong and sharp clothes.
But so what? As soon as the emperor stood up, the whole city boiled, and a blind man could tell who the warriors belonged to.
Li Chuyun's forehead was covered with sweat, glistening in the sun. He rode to the door, got off the horse with several others, and threw the reins to the guards. It seemed that everything was calm, but his mind was completely dazed at this time.
In retrospect, Li Chuyun felt that from the time he went out to return to Beijing, he followed the orders of the court and did nothing! But I knew in my heart that many things could not be hidden from the officials, and I was inexplicably afraid.
With a straight face, he bit the bullet and walked up the stone steps behind the wall of Xuande Gate step by step. Li Chuyun had a premonition that this would be the last part of his life!
Wei Renpu and the superintendent Zan Jurun will sue him, and what Queen Fu says will be against him. Obviously delaying the itinerary, the intention is unknown! Control the outer scouts of the army and occupy the power of the former camp military mansion! Even the memorial in black and white is suspected of forcing the court to warn the court... These are not definite crimes, but the suspicion caused is a fatal crime: not being loyal enough!
Li Chuyun has known for a long time that once the power of the court is involved, it will be extremely dangerous. Father, son and brother can kill each other...
He has nothing to do now, even if it is the guillotine, he can only be captured without any resistance.
All of a sudden, he was shocked by the spectacular scene he saw from the Xuande Gate, and his vision suddenly widened, and Li Chuyun suddenly realized that he had been in a daze for a while! Nothing he did was right... Why was he so stupid that he didn't participate in the critical moment! It is a pity that it is too late to regret now.
Li Chuyun's red face became hotter and redder, but the red face and black beard complement each other perfectly. Although the chances are slim, he still has a glimmer of hope and luck in his heart...
After all, Guo Shao has always been kind and heart-warming, and he has no credit or hard work to conquer the country. Maybe he can be exempted from the duke position and enjoy leisure and wealth for the rest of his life. It is very gratifying to come to the current situation and end up like this, and I am very grateful.
A group of four walked to the front of Luanjia. Li Chuyun lowered his head, clasped his fists and knelt on one knee, and said, "Your Majesty will live forever! I owe your majesty's trust..."
A few other people also saluted, and Wei Renpu's words were also clichés, but the lightness and joy in his tone couldn't be concealed. Hearing this, Li Chuyun was even more sour. He only felt that although he was called a Confucian general, he was still inferior to the real old stuff in the officialdom.
Guo Shao said nothing. Although Li Chuyun didn't dare to look up, he still found his eyes staring from the corner of his vision, but his eyes seemed not as bright as before, and he was not energetic.
The emperor didn't say that he was flat, and everyone knelt down without saying a word. This kind of silence made Li Chuyun's heart feel like a mountain of thousands.
